Abstract

Increasing industrial activities have a negative impact on the ecosystem. One of them is environmental pollution. Heavy metals can be found in industrial waste whose presence can endanger living things around the industrial environment. Overcoming the presence of heavy metal ions in industrial waste can be done by biosorption methods. Biosorption is one of the strategies that can be utilized to adsorb heavy metal levels contained in wastewater. Langsat shell was used as biomass to adsorb Cd2+ metal ions using column method.  This study was conducted to determine the effect of flow rate on the absorption of Cd2+ metal ions. The results showed that the optimal absorption of Cd2+ metal ions by langsat shell occurred at a flow rate of 1 mL /  min with an absorption capacity of 16.5425 mg/gram.

Abstract

Most of the energy consumed comes from non-renewable fossil fuel resources. Therefore, a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source is needed, namely sunlight. One way to utilize sunlight is to store it into chemical compounds, namely hydrogen. The hydrogen used comes from water through a process of decomposing its molecules called water decomposition. Water decomposition uses sunlight and semiconductor photocatalysts, such as TiO2. In this study, TiO2 has been synthesized and doped with Cu metal to reduce the band gap with a simple and environmentally friendly method. XRD characterization to determine the structure and particle size. TiO2 has an anatase crystal structure with an average particle size of 28.28 nm. TiO2 has an energy band gap of 3.2 eV. Then doping with Cu metal with varying concentrations of Cu metal soluble (0.1 M san 0.5 M) causes the energy band gap to decrease to 3.17 and 3.07 eV. Metal doping is proven to reduce the band gap energy of TiO2 photocatalysts. In addition, metal doping also helps widen the light absorption area by TiO2, but the absorption is still in the UV region.

Abstract

Cosmetics in cream form are more suitable. Stearic acid and triethanolamine are used as emulsifiers in making creams. The purpose of this study was to see the variation of stearic acid with triethanolamine that produces a stable cream against the physical properties of the cream preparation. The cream made was a cream with an oil-in-water (w/o) type with variations of stearic acid 5, 10, 15, 20%, and triethanolamine 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4%. The heating temperature used was 400C. The cream preparation formed was evaluated through physical property testing including pH testing and Homogeneity testing and organoleptic testing. The results showed that the higher the concentration of stearic acid used, the pH of the cream decreased, but was still within the requirements of a good cream for the skin, as well as homogeneity, the higher the concentration of stearic acid, the more homogeneous the cream produced. Panelist organoleptic testing liked the color, odor and homogeneity of the 20% stearic acid variation, which was preferred by panelists. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that the concentration of the cream preparation with variations of stearic acid: triethanolamine 20%: 3.5% is the best preparation based on testing of physical and organoleptic properties.

Abstract

Wild grass is a plant that grows unwanted in certain areas such as fields, gardens, agricultural land and yards. This plant is generally discarded and rarely used. Based on the composition of the materials used in ecoenzymes, fresh wild grass plants have great potential to be used as raw materials for ecoenzymes. This study aims to determine the characteristics of ecoenzymes produced using wild grass from home gardens, such as fragrant nutsedge (Cyperus aromaticus var. Elatus), virginica grass (Leersia virginica), Belulang grass (Eleusine indica), Peking grass (Agrostis stolonifera) and Ilalang (Imperata cylindrica). Wild grass with a certain composition is mixed with brown sugar and water in a ratio of 3: 1: 10 in five containers. The ecoenzyme manufacturing process is carried out for 90 days and changes in color, odor, and pH of the ecoenzyme product are observed. The results of this study indicate that the color of the five ecoenzymes produced shows a change in color to become more cloudy than the initial color of the ecoenzyme. The odor of the five ecoenzymes produced showed a change in odor to become more sour in the third month like the typical odor of weeds. Meanwhile, the pH of the ecoenzymes produced ranged from 5.8 to 7.8. The high pH of the ecoenzymes produced was caused by the low organic acid content of the ecoenzymes produced. In addition to observing the physical condition and pH of the ecoenzymes produced, qualitative testing of the nutrient content in the form of N, P and K was also carried out. Testing of the nutrient content of N, P and K carried out showed that the ecoenzymes produced from home yard weeds contained the nutrients N, P and K. These results indicate that the ecoenzymes produced can also be used as liquid organic fertilizers
